4.11.7 Editing Panel Properties
Some panel properties will have an asterisk (*) next to their name. The asterisk signifies that the property is
editable. Properties without an asterisk are read-only. To change the value of an editable property, simply click on
the property value to highlight the text, type in the new information, and press the <enter> key. The text
associated with the edited property (the value and the node) will turn from blue to green signifying that it has been
changed, but has not yet been sent to the panel. This process may be repeated for multiple devices on the network
without making any updates to the associated panels. There are three different options available for sending the
edited information out to the panel(s). Once all edits have been sent to the panels the values and nodes associated
with the change will display in blue again.
• The user may update individual device properties by right-clicking on the device name and selecting Update
from the pop-up menu. This will only update properties edited for that device.
• The user may update all edited properties on a specific panel by right-clicking on the panel name and selecting
Update
from the pop-up menu.
• The user may click on the Update button at the top of the screen to send changes out to all edited panels.
At any time after properties are edited, but before updates are sent to the panels, the user may abandon all
changes by simply exiting the NFN Explorer program, or by clicking on the Cancel button located at the top of
the form. Clicking on Cancel will cause the NFN Explorer to refresh its display with the original information
extracted from the panel(s). The edited properties will then change from green to blue.

4.11.8 Detectors
The first time the plug-in application is loaded, or if devices have been
added since the last refresh; the Explorer will not pick up the devices. In
order to refresh the device list, go to the Panel the devices are listed on,
expand the appropriate Loop (if applicable), then right-click on
Detectors to bring up the Detect option. Highlight, then left click. This
will refresh the device list to include any new devices added since the last
detection. That data will then be saved at the Workstation.
